A Work House Needed.

Importance Of some system Of Keeping

great benefit to Us as citizens, and also
be better for the prisoners themselves.

and learn habits of industry which
might greatly benefit them In after life.
Last week while In Zanesvllle made
1t my business to visit and inspect their
Work house, and I was really very much
pleased with all pertaining thereto.
The whole arrangement is quite COM
plete and well adapted for the object
had IN view. The cost of this model
work house all complete was only about
$40. 900, built by the cooperation Of the
city authorities and the County Commits
sioners, thus making 1t an institution
for the whole county, located at the
county seat. There are sixty-four cells,
all very neat, secure and comfortable. a
fine, large dining room, wash room, bath
rooms for both sexes, and five or six
convenient rooms for the family of the
superintendent, also the Mayors Office
is In the same building. Some Of these
things we could dispense with. The
cit'zsns Of that county appear to be
highly elsted with the SUCCESS Of their
work house.
Prisoners are much better treated and
not exposed to vice as heretofore; thew
are kept under strict discipline; they
are not allowed to utter word except
by permission and In presence OF the su-
perindent. They must keep clean; no
